Business managers & developers will love it!
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use and the whole developer experience (API, Documentation, ...)
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing! Just keep up the brilliant work!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Algolia mainly because we needed to improve our search experience. We do salary comparisons and the core of our website is around salary reports. It is very important for us that users find exactly the reports they want in the quickest and easiest way possible.
With algolia we were able to improve our UX, and the best part is it couldn't have been any easier!

What do you dislike about the product?
We haven't run any into any issues in 8 months of usage
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Algolia to index articles in our customer app.

Algolia makes search easy
What do you like best about the product?
We've been using Algolia for the past 8 months and it has been super reliable. As a smaller team, it immediately gave us a ton of flexibility and options we could tweak to improve our search results. It was extremely easy to understand and implement.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish it were easier to keep our Algolia index in sync with our main database.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Search can be difficult and require a lot of configuration and tuning. Algolia powers the search across our platform and has saved us time and resources that we would have had to invest in setting up and maintaining infrastructure for search.
Fast searching API for anything!
What do you like best about the product?
Algolia has easy implementation and easy data management. The searching is fast and it allows your users to find things quickly.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have not found anything that I dislike yet. Pricing is good and worth it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We allow users to search for careers, skills, open jobs, and projects internally at their company that they work at. We needed an easy search api so that employees could find opportunity. Algolia enables users to quickly find what they need. Additionally, the analytics gives us insight on what and how people search so that we can constantly improve our searching. Also, there are so many packages offered in terms of replication to make sure that data isn't lost. There is a huge community too around using their plugins like instantsearch that will help you really get started.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Easiest search api out there. Everything else is harder to use.
Algolia for blogs
What do you like best about the product?
It’s a better way to search our site, our audience is able to locate relevant pieces of our content even if those pages were created 4 years ago.
What do you dislike about the product?
The setup process was not very easy, although algolia was responsive to emails and did help us set it up.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to track what new content we should create and see what old content people are searching for
So far, so good
What do you like best about the product?
Faceting and speed. Faceting has improved user experience.
What do you dislike about the product?
Customization limitations on filters, for instance for array. The object index size is a worrying factor, which it should not be.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Moving our search to Algolia has saved a lot of power consumption on our server side.
Best outsourcing decision
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to setup and easy to operate and maintain. They even give you a free javascript library that they maintain. The free tier is nice for trying out.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing I can think of, so far it's a good experience
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We don't have enough manpower to implement a commodity such as search. Even if we had the engineering pool, it makes no sense to implement a commodity feature such as search when something as cheap as Algolia exists
Great product, being a customer for months now, just needs cheaper plans
What do you like best about the product?
Service overall works great. But would like that custom sorting didn't need to duplicate the index and count towards the plan limit.
What do you dislike about the product?
Still some clients don't like to commit US$ 35 for a search service. For a client that pays ~US$ 30 for a hosting, it is understandable they don't want to double the hosting cost because of the search.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Advanced search on 7000+ posters, including search by color: https://www.typographicposters.com/?r=255&g=0&b=0
Super fast search, bit basic in features
What do you like best about the product?
The speed, the ease of development, the dashboard.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is (apart from the speed) quite unsophisticated. The entire model is geared to get you to pay more, more, more; which is a bit sad. Bug reports are countered with "we can only fix that on an enterprise server" (which is $1500+ per month).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving documentation search.
It is amazingly fast, which helps with refinement of the search query.

Impressive technology
What do you like best about the product?
We installed Algolia and got it working with minimal fuss. The technology is what they use on ProductHunt, so you knw that it is battle tested.
What do you dislike about the product?
Pricing is slightly higher than expected, but we're happy with the service overall. We may be on a higher tier than is necessary, but needed some of the additional features because of the size of the data set.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Discovery on a large site is difficult-- Algolia helps users better surface our content.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Adds value to users, doesn't require a huge IT lift We were able to get it working quickly, but needed some help in figuring out exactly how to configure the individual search databases.
We look around at more complex open source solutions, but realized that we would have to spend more money on the actual implementation..
